1) Script Title: Memory Ticker (Home -> Scrollers)
2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex2/memoryticker.htm
3) Describe problem: I've copied the ticker CSS and script onto a website I'm currently working on, but the ticker doesn't show up at all.
I'm pretty sure the problem isn't my browser (Safari v3.1.1?), since I can view the demo on DD just fine.
Here's a test I was working on: http://arenatournament.webs.com/scroller.htm
